Thanks to you Joachim, if nothing else my husband and I were comfortable financially for the remaining years of his life, this made such a difference, the one thing we didn't have to worry about was money.

Since then, Joachim has worked extensively in the field of clinical negligence, and found the time to complete two postgraduate degrees, one of which had a medico-legal element.
Joachim’s particular strength is medically complex claims, including;
He has also worked on inquests and has been involved in educational negligence and defamation claims. Joachim has published in medico-legal journals, and more widely. He has also worked with the national charity Erb’s Palsy Group and lectured on clinical negligence.
Joachim has only ever worked on behalf of claimants:
“I feel very strongly about retaining access to justice for claimants. The government’s position in relation to ‘compensation culture’ is just unrealistic and ill-informed, and I am proud of my team’s efforts to change the public opinion.”
I first became interested in clinical negligence law when the firm I worked for then provided media commentary on the Bristol Royal Infirmary paediatric cardiac scandal. The law and the medicine both seemed fascinating. I joined the clinical negligence team, began working on the Bristol Royal Infirmary Public Inquiry, and soon discovered that talking to the press was not nearly as much fun as I thought it would be.
